Julie Dow - INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) -- After a year that saw a record 154 murders, 16 people were victims of criminal homicide in January in Indianapolis.

Victims ranged from 19 to 75 years old, and all but one of the victims were men.

Of those 16 deaths, 13 were from gunshot wounds, two were from stabbings and one was described by the coroner's office as blunt trauma injuries. Three gunshot victims were found shot to death in cars, while police say another was shot and then pushed out of her own car.

In all, the 15 separate incidents occurred on just nine days of the month.

Arrests had been made in four of the cases as of Feb. 2.

In one case, a father-in-law allegedly stabbed his son-in-law during a dispute that began over a missing Bluetooth earpiece. In another, police say a man shot and killed his mother's boyfriend after the boyfriend punched him in the mouth.

Police were called to the 300 block of South Oakland Avenue around 2:30 a.m. on a report of a person shot. The person who called police told dispatchers "We need an ambulance. My brother shot my mom's boyfriend." When asked why his brother shot the man, the caller said, "Well, my mom's boyfriend punched him, so he pulled out his gun and shot him several times."

Medics arrived and pronounced Daniels dead at the scene. He had sustained multiple gunshot wounds to the head, court documents say.

Jacob McIntosh, 23, told arriving officers, "I shot him," according to charging documents in the case. McIntosh's girlfriend told detectives Daniels acted "aggressive and threatening" when she and McIntosh got to the residence, which led to an argument and Daniels punching McIntosh. That's when, according to his girlfriend, McIntosh went to his bedroom and came back downstairs "holding a handgun in each hand." McIntosh told police who questioned him that Daniels had taken advantage of his mother and stolen from her.

"I ended his life to begin a new one for my mother. Hopefully, to begin a new one for my mother's," McIntosh told police, court documents say.

McIntosh was charged with murder and remained in the Marion County Jail, online records show. His next appearance in court is scheduled for March 14.

Tyrone Burt

Around 4 a.m. the same day, officers found 40-year-old Tyrone Burt on the ground in the 3700 block of North Wallace Avenue, near 38th Street and Emerson Avenue, suffering from multiple gunshot wounds. Medics pronounced Burt dead at the scene.

Toby George, 41, was arrested that day and charged with murder in connection with Burt's death.

Court documents show a number of people were in and out of the residence leading up to the fatal shooting. Those questioned provided police with conflicting narratives regarding exactly who was where and what caused compounding arguments between George, George's girlfriend, her relatives, and finally Burt, to turn deadly.

George remained in the Marion County Jail, with his next court appearance scheduled for Feb. 15.

Calvin Hunter

Later that night, officers were called to the 3700 block of Celtic Drive - just south of East 38th Street, between Post and Mitthoeffer roads - around 8:45 p.m. and found 28-year-old Calvin Hunter with at least one gunshot wound in an SUV on the property.

Police told 24-Hour News 8 they think the Hunter was shot inside the vehicle and then crashed onto the property where the car was found.

No suspect description was released, and no arrest had been announced in connection with the shooting.

It was not clear whether the person left in critical condition knew Daniels.

Police did not provide a suspect description, nor had an arrest been announced in connection with the case.

Trevor Mann

Three days later and less than a mile away from the two scenes where Daniels and Hunter were found fatally shot, police investigated the shooting death of 19-year-old Trevor Mann, who suffered multiple gunshot wounds and was found in an empty townhouse.

Vi Nguyen spoke to Mann's mother, who said she reported her son as missing the week before he was found dead, and who identified her son by the tattoos on his hands. Cathy Mann described her son as goofy, outgoing and caring and said he was taking on big responsibilities as a new father to a 2-month-old boy.

Mann also had a message for the person responsible for her son's death: "Just turn yourself in, turn yourself in. Think about what your mother would go through if it was you in that body bag and not my son."

24-Hour News 8's Julian Grace spoke to a woman who works with children in the neighborhood. She says investment in the area is key to reducing crime. She wants to see the abandoned buildings in her neighborhood turned into affordable housing. The Rev. Charles Harrison with the Ten Point Coalition said he was going to meet with management at the townhome and apartment community to recommend they hire private security guards.

No suspect description was released, and no arrest had been announced in connection with Mann's death.

Emergency responders with the Wayne Township Fire Department took 38-year-old Franklin Lainez-Carcamo to Sidney & Lois Eskenazi Hospital in critical condition on Sunday afternoon after he was found stabbed on the front porch of a residence in the 300 block of Barton Avenue, on the west side.

Lainez-Carcamo died four days lateras a result of his injuries, and his father-in-law, Leroy Benge, was arrested in connection with the stabbing.

Detectives spoke with Benge, his wife and his daughter about the circumstances leading up to Lainez-Carcamo's stabbing. While each account portrayed the physical altercation differently -- whether or not Lainez-Carcamo had a knife, the positions of the two men when the stabbing occurred, and to what extent Benge's wife and daughter tried to de-escalate the situation -- all said the argument began when Benge accused Lainez-Carcamo of stealing his Bluetooth earpiece.

Marion County Prosecutor Terry Curry charged Benge with voluntary manslaughter, knowingly killing another human being while acting under a sudden heat.

Benge remained in the Marion County Jail, according to online records, and is next scheduled to appear in court on March 21.

James Slaughter

When 20-year-old James Slaughter arrived in critical condition at Community North Hospital on Sunday night, it wasn't clear where the shooting had taken place.

Slaughter died at the hospital, and police believed a possible a possible location for the shooting was the intersection of Biscayne Road and Bel Air Drive, less than a mile from the scenes where Mann, Hunter and Daniels were found.

No suspect descriptions were provided, nor were arrests announced in connection with Slaughter's death.

"I just don't see how another individual could do that to someone and nobody would know that it wouldn't be found, so I just have every confidence that they will find them," she said.

Police said they noticed several things missing from the home, including two of Ralston's vehicles -- a Hummer and a Mustang. Both vehicles were located.

Billy Hawkins

Across town on the afternoon of the same day, officers responded to a report of shots fired in the 3700 block of Hillside Avenue. They found 35-year-old Billy Hawkins a street over on Baltimore Avenue, fatally shot.

Suspect information was not released in connection with those two deaths, nor had police announced arrests in either case.

James Ratcliffe had been a security guard at the Sawmill Saloon at 13th Street and North Sherman Drive, but friends say he was hanging out, not working, in the early hours of Sunday morning when five people were shot.

Ratcliffe, 50, and Deron Gray, 24, died of their gunshot wounds, while two other victims were hospitalized in critical condition, the fifth in stable condition. IMPD said a disturbance at the bar led to the gunfire.

"The bar should be shut down," Fowler said. "It's a danger zone for anybody that goes in there. How can you have fun? You have to carry a gun just to have fun or you can't return home to your safety."

While police said any shooting suspect or person of interest was accounted for, and no immediate threat to the public remained on Sunday, they did not release any suspect names, the condition of that person or people or any arrests in the case.

A little more than 12 hours later, officers found 49-year-old Catrina Russell shot and killed less than two miles away in the parking lot of the New York Express convenience store at the corner of East New York and North Rural streets.

Police said they believe Russell was driving a charcoal-colored Lexus and pulled up to the convenience store when her passenger shot her and pushed her out of the car, then drove away. Russell's car was found abandoned near 16th Street and North Sherman Drive.

IMPD announced Monday they believed 52-year-old Fredrick Ford was the last person with Russell while she was alive.

On Friday afternoon, police arrested Ford, who faces a preliminary charge of murder. He remained in the Marion County Jail, online records show.
